خريطة الشارع المفتوحة
So last year I bought a new bike. I use it to commute between Jarrow and Gateshead, and on weekends I often join a social group ride from the Newcastle quayside, to various destinations. I’ve taken to tracking my rides with my phone (it’s so convenient now that GPS is all built in) and I’ve been tweaking and updating my local area.
If you see somebody on a green Brompton in the area, do wave!

Good stuff. Don’t forget to add surface and smoothness tags where possible :)
And if you’re looking for things to map, make sure you turn on the Notes feature and also check out http://keepright.ipax.at/report_map.php?zoom=14&lat=56.06445&lon=-3.21931 for possible errors you might be able to fix.

Smoothness, now that’s one I wasn’t aware of!

If I see you when surveying on my own green Brompton, I’ll definitely wave! :-)
Top tip - on a 6-speed check the bolts/ nuts holding the plastic derailleur arm are tight. Mine fell off after 6 months and caused great confusion in the dark.
I’m guessing you’ve probably used several cycle routing tools, but just in case… https://www.cyclestreets.net/ http://opencyclemap.org/

Is it safe to wave back on a Brompton? :)
James’s advice is good - a good tightening of every bolt and nut on a new bike after a month or two is usually necessary, and the bike shops will usually include that first service in the bike price.

Perfectly safe! I can even ride no-hands for nearly six seconds.
My Brompton isn’t new any more - I’ve been riding it for a year and a half. It had a service at 100 miles, a full strip down service at one year, and various other checkups and fixes. I’ve already broken an elbow on it last winter, and wiped out on ice this winter. Bromptons are fun, fact. (-:
